Posted June 23, 200717 yr I was having problems with microsoft windows updates downloads for XP pro. When I ran dial a fix it went through the whole of the list until it came to section 5 the last two one of which is "Explorer/IE/OE/shell/WMP" Error message came up as Access violation at address 77C0155D in module version.dll. Read of address 00000004. I don't no what it is and how to fix it. If anyone out there knows please help and Thanks.
June 26, 200717 yr We would definitely need a log so that I can at least find out which version of Dial-a-fix you are using. There was a bug a while back that caused an access violation in version.dll (but that was in Windows 2000 Pro) but I already fixed that one (which doesn't apply to you since you have XP). Also, what file name is listed in the status bar at the time of the crash? In case someone linked you to a third-party site to get Dial-a-fix (and maybe you ended up with an older version), here is the official site: https://wiki.lunarsoft.net/wiki/Dial-a-fix Thanks in advance!
July 2, 200717 yr Thank you for your kind help. The version of dial a fix i am using or used is Dial-a-fix v0.60.0.24 (2006-10-27). I have run the scan several times but still comes with same error message which is below. It reads as follows :- Access voilation at address 77C0155D in module 'version. dll'. Read of address of 00000004. This error message comes when it come to register es. dll.... Harcharanjit

July 10, 200717 yr The next DLL after es.dll is fontext.dll - this is (or may be) where Dial-a-fix is crashing. Can you register fontext.dll by doing the following? Click Start, then click Run..., then type this in the Run box: regsvr32 fontext.dll If that doesn't work, fontext.dll might be corrupted. Dial-a-fix's version checking scheme isn't protected very well (since I was a noob when I wrote it ) so corrupted DLLs can crash Dial-a-fix kind of easily (sadly). I'm working on improving this for future versions. Let me know what message appears after you try regsvr32 on fontext.dll. If you get an error with regsvr32 about fontext.dll, you might try extracting fontext.dll from your Windows installation CD (or looking for an alternate copy somewhere else on your system). You could also run SFC scan through Dial-a-fix's Tools dialog. Don't purge SFC, though, just scan.
